Tips & Advice

What is a DME claim?

A durable medical equipment (DME) claim is a form you fill out to get reimbursed for expenses that you paid for and are covered by insurance. If you bought something directly from the supplier, and it qualifies, you can be reimbursed by Medicaid insurance.

Which medical supplies are covered through Medicaid?

Medicaid will cover necessary durable medical equipment that your doctor prescribes for your in-home use. They must be durable, used for a medical reason, not typically useful to someone who isn’t sick or injured (like crutches or a wheelchair), is used in the home, and has a minimum of a three-year life expectancy. If your condition has extenuating circumstances, you can file a claim or speak to a Medicaid rep to discuss your options.

After talking with the receptionist I found that what I needed was not in stock (for rental) so she called the Spring Hill location only to find this item not available there also. I should add that this is a hard to get and find item so I do not fault Community Respiratory. Upon further research from Spring Hill, they were going to have this in stock during my time frame. The receptionist then checked her schedule and found they also would have what I needed in the time frame. She said she would mark the first one that comes in for my wife. As I failed to get her name I hope she knows I am talking about her. We are so grateful for this service and will surly call them first. Oh something else minor to others but important to me. She actually said "thanks for calling and have a nice day".

Solid service through this location as well. I live in Spring HIll, and was down in Pinellas on a Saturday, and had an issue with my carry tank. I called in, and got the on call service, and was told to swing into the clearwater location. The guy working the store solved my problem quickly, and I was back on my way to my fun weekend within 5 minutes of entering the store. A+ service.
